hello, I just finished my first year of Chiropractic school. I like a lot of ideas taught in Chiropractic school but I feel there's a lot missing, and I am very interested in going to Osteopathic Medical school.
I did not take my undergrad seriously, I have a Microbiology BS which I did very poorly in. I have a 2.6 undergrad GPA and it took me 6 years to obtain the degree, with being on dismissal for one entire semester and getting many D's and F's with lots of repeats.
I have matured a lot since coming to Chiropractic school. My GPA for the first year is at a 3.68 currently. I have shadowed two DO's and have become close to them (who would write recommendation letters). I have also volunteered at a hospital for about 100 hours this past year. and have been studying for the MCAT all year and plan on taking it in 2 months.
my question is, since my gpa has been relatively high in Chiropractic school (which has many anatomy, physiology, and science courses which are jam packed in each trimester) and if I score very well on the MCAT's do you think I would have a shot in getting accepted into an Osteopathic school? or would my undergraduate transcripts make it impossible?
thank you, and please be honest in your responses
